From 22c88425e03e8476176375ab0457c88ff3a5b68c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Kashyap, Desai" Date: Wed, 16 Dec 2009 18:53:04 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] [SCSI] mpt2sas: Use compat_ptr to setup the pointer compatibility. On ppc64, an 32bit application was failing due to data buffers not being copied properly from user to kernel memory. The problem due to improper conversion of 32 to 64 bit pointers. The fix is to use compat_ptr to setup the pointer compatibility in the routine _ctl_compat_mpt_command.
